LORI ILL Implementation is a collaborative effort between OLIS and LORI libraries to provide a resource sharing solution that will enable libraries to better serve RI residents, faculties, and students. Relais Enterprise ILL hosted service is chosen for this undertaking.  To ensure a smooth transition to the new system, an implementation group was formed to pilot the program. 

LORI ILL Implementation Group is consisted of the LORI ILL Working Group and staff from the libraries taking part in the Relais Enterprise hosted ILL services pilot program. Of the 11 pilot library representatives, 5 are members from the current LORI ILL Working Group.
